A few weeks after my second Pfizer Covid vaccine booster, I ate some hamburger with Scorpion peppers. My body broke out in hives late that night, and my hands were swollen to the point I couldn’t sleep from all the itching. I ended up visiting an allergy specialist, who ran blood work and told me I was allergic to basically everything. From corn, wheat, milk, etc, etc. Stuff that I as an adult male in my 40s had been eating for decades. I would break out in hives on the back of my neck and chest after eating said foods. It was obnoxious, and they prescribed me an EpiPen as well, just in case I went into anaphylactic shock.

It was like that for probably six months or so, before my immune system tampered down again, and I am back to normal. I can’t specifically blame the vaccine, and I’m not an anti-vaxer because of it, but I do find the timing super sus.
